Description

"Through a number of interviews with representatives of national cooperative associations, and
through an online mapping survey aimed at identifying existing cases of cooperatives that are
already experimenting with collaborative economy logics, this study allowed us to draw an initial
picture of the state of the art. More research needs to be done to better understand, especially from
an empirical point of view, the dynamics that are developing on the ground between cooperation
and collaborative economy and the future challenges and opportunities; however, this constitutes an
important first step in an interesting and promising direction."
